I needed to water the lawn, so I pulled out the sprinklers. Immediately, Brylee started squealing. She took off towards the water, clothes & all! Brant followed, too! They had a blast playing in the water.
Brant & Brylee have really grown close this summer. It seems that she can finally play with him. She loves Brant! She wakes each morning calling "Bant". She will try to go in his room to wake him up. Sometimes I have to remind Brant that she is still little and he must be careful. For the most part, he usually does well with her. He sometimes likes to agitate her by taking her baby stroller or a toy she is playing with, but what brother doesn't like to aggravate his sister?
Trying to capture pictures was VERY difficult. Bryan's mom made Brylee's dress. It was beautiful! Here are some of the best pictures. I tried my best . . .
We went to Gulf Shores with some friends of ours. We had a wonderful time. We spent lots of time at the beach. Brant loved playing in the waves near the shore and Brylee spent her time playing in the sand, and even snacking on the sand-YUCK! Our friends have two little girls, Peyton & Emily. Peyton was Brant's age and you would have thought they were brother and sister the way they argued, but they loved playing together. Emily is a year older than Brylee, so they really didn't interact much. It was great spending time with them. Bryan & Shawn went deep sea fishing and Courtney and I enjoyed some shopping, too. It was a really fun trip!
We had a great Memorial Day weekend. We went to leave the kids with my parents for our 10 year anniversary. We came home from their house Sunday. Monday, we decided to cookout. While Bryan was cooking ribs, Brant & Brylee played in their kiddie pool with the sprinklers on top of the trampoline. They LOVED it! It was funny to watch them. They both played and played - on the swings, in the car, and ate strawberry marshmallows. They had the best time. It was a fun weekend!
